Best Actor

    Reporters, strobe lights, red carpets, railings, and poster-waving crowds of moviegoers, all of which Sean knows all too well, only the scene has been moved to Cannes, and... whether journalists or moviegoers, the number are relatively few.

      far less.

    It looks like there are a lot of people.

    However, there are quite a few reporters, fans and film critics who came to the premiere of "Babel" tonight, although not like the previous "X-Men" third, or some "The Da Vinci Code" starring Tom Hanks is so much, but not too bad.

      Not to mention he has played a number of classic roles; not to mention the latter, two Oscar nominations and the lead role in the new Batman series are enough to make him into the ranks of superstars, and some people now call him Hollywood The best actor born in the 80s.

    In this way, plus the cast is a multinational force, the United States, Mexico, Morocco, plus Japan, enough to attract the attention of many people.

    Then, director Inarido's two previous films, "Love is a Bitch" and "21 Grams", although not very good at the box office, have a good reputation and are very popular with European film critics The appetite, so they also came a lot, and the scene naturally did not lose to those big productions.

    "Hey, Avery, it's been a long time." He walked across the red carpet without stopping and came to the entrance of the theater. Sean stretched out his arms and the director to the sound of the camera. Alessandro Gonzalez Inarido hugs.

    "You know, I thought for a long time that even at the premiere in Cannes, I might not see you." Inarido replied with a smile.

    "You're right, I almost couldn't come. If I didn't have a good relationship with the director of the movie I was shooting, I wouldn't have asked for leave so easily." Say hello to others.

    The main members of the "Babel Tower" crew are all gathered at the entrance of the theater, and they are dressed in different clothes. Most of the men are wearing suits, but a few young actors are wearing white or beige teaching uniforms The robes look a bit nondescript.

    But compared with Inarido, this nondescript seems to be within the acceptable range. Although men don’t wear many patterns, they come and go with suits, but they can Combining other aspects - such as hairstyle - can give a better impression.

    But Inarido's current image makes people do not know what to say, the curly hair is still set back, and the length is not small, although the beard has been shaved, But the stubble is still obvious and a little messy. Obviously, there is no image designer or fashion designer to give him advice.

    If you were dressed like this when you were directing, it wouldn't matter, but at the premiere, and it was still in Cannes, it was a bit out of place. But at the moment there are those Monaco children dressed in robes standing together, and the feeling of being out of place is not so strong, not to mention there are more prominent ones, such as Rinko Kikuchi who has dyed his hair yellow and piled it upright, but is wearing a kimono.

    God knows what she thinks, anyway, Sean was struck by lightning, especially with his hair, is there any difference from the cockscomb hairstyle of the Mohicans? Is there any difference between her dress and those little girls on the street in the memory of her previous life? Well, at least she's wearing a kimono.

    So, although Rinko Kikuchi's English level is not bad, not as vague as other Japanese, who mix Japanese and English, but Sean still only had a few simple conversations with her.

    Even in a kimono, Kate is still more attractive, she is wearing a black and white kimono, modified by a costume designer, sleeveless, and there is no bag at the back, as always elegant and generous , there is no sense of incompatibility that Westerners wear oriental clothing, but a different charm.

    It's a pity that Sean is not good at talking to her, even greetings are light, and Kate's response is also very calm, his eyes basically never stop on him.

    Although I was very depressed and helpless, I couldn’t care about it. Fortunately, everyone didn’t spend much time at the entrance of the theater. After the Mexican actor Adriana Barraza, who played the nanny, arrived, they At the prompt of the staff, I walked to the front and waved to the surrounding reporters, and asked them to take enough pictures before walking inside together.

    A lot of people have gathered in the theater at this time, many of them are directors, actors, and their assistants and friends who came to the premiere. Frederick and the others walked the red carpet. Come in directly, stay here at the moment. Emma didn't see it, she didn't go with them, but walked through the side door, probably sitting in the screening hall by now.

    She is really clear. Sean thought with a headache. He initially proposed to let her walk in with Galen and the others on the red carpet, in order to create opportunities for her to have more contact with those big-name directors and actors.

    Didn't she want to be an actress at first? In this case, wouldn't it be good to start setting up contacts now? Anyway, Sean didn't expect her to stay on forever, although she was very qualified as an assistant.

    Unexpectedly, she refused, without giving a reason at first, until he asked her again before he came here, she said that she is just an assistant, since she is an assistant, then Have what an assistant should look like.

    Well, Sean didn't refute, as for the implication... It seems that his names have been instilled by her through daily behavior and Galen's indoctrination, which is really unbelievable. Happy.

    I don't have time to think about this now, so Sean, who is restrained, greeted many people, although most of them are people who just know each other, but with Inarido, there will always be Got some surprises.

    "You are also in this theater? That's great, maybe this year's Palme d'Or will be a two-man showdown." Sean smiled and was slightly fatter than ordinary people, and Inarido The middle-aged man with the same beard and round glasses said.

    "We are indeed in this theater, but to your disappointment, we may not be able to compete with Avery." Although the middle-aged man smiled, he immediately spread out helplessly hand.

    "Why?" Sean was a little strange.

    "Because CG is used too much, and it belongs to...magic works." Another middle-aged man standing next to Inarido said, he and Inarido and Like the first man, they all have beards, but they have a little bit of white and sideburns, and they are obviously much older than them.

    "You know, no matter what kind of award, as long as it is slightly famous, it will not consider non-reality movies." He also spread his hands.

    Sean let out a sigh, then shook his head, reached out and patted their shoulders: "It doesn't matter, I believe that "Pan's Labyrinth" is an excellent movie, and the evaluation won't Lost to "Babel Tower"."

    The previous middle-aged man was Guillermo del Toro, who was Mexican like Inarido. He started to be a director in the 1990s and gained a lot of fame in Mexico. The director went to Hollywood like that.

    But he didn't have a good time in Hollywood. Although he directed "Mutant DNA" at the box office, he returned to Mexico to continue working hard and established his own production company.

    However, Toro did not give up completely. After the millennium, he came to Hollywood again and was in charge of the shooting of "Blade Warrior 2". Then he followed the one he always wanted to direct, adapted from comics The live-action version of Hellboy. After the success of two consecutive films, although he has established a firm foothold in Hollywood, his status has not improved much, just like early last year, when he finally completed the script of "Pan's Labyrinth", he could hardly find investment.

    "Pan's Labyrinth" is a fairy tale, but it is not suitable for children to watch. People who live in the countryside are generally pictured as people with horns and hooves.

    In Toro's script, a little girl living in the Spanish countryside at the end of World War II, because of being hurt by fascism, met Pan in the forest, and under his leadership Went down to a lot of strange and even weird places and traveled once.

    Looking at this introduction, you can immediately understand, what Pan God, the maze, the monster, all are the fantasy of a little girl escaping the torture of reality. Since it is a fantasy, there must be a lot of CG productions, but the script is obviously literary, so even if the budget is less than 20 million, there are not many people willing to invest.

    Toro had already received investment from a production company in the middle of last year, but the other party asked for some changes to the script, Toro refused this request, so he was in trouble again, until Ina Rideau introduced Sean to him.

    Inarido knew Toro not only because they were both Mexican, but also because Alfonso Cuaron, the older middle-aged man who explained to Sean .

    Curon is also Mexican, and he became a director before Toro, and began to set foot in this field in the 1980s. However, there are not many works directed by him, and most of them are **** movies, so they are not very well-known until "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" was released.

    It is unclear why Warner executives chose him to direct, and how JK Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series, would agree, but he did give a good answer , Although the box office of the third Harry Potter film was not as high as expected, it is the most temperamental and characteristic of several series that have been released.

    So, these three Mexican directors, Inarido, Toro, and Caron, are called the three Mexican heroes by good people. Yes, they are the Mexican that Sean nagged at the beginning. Sanjie.
